I have been using these reeds for a few years, after quickly becoming frustrated with the inconsistency and tendency to squeak with most cane reeds. Legere are really good quality reeds. I tried the Classic and Signature in the past, but found that the American Cut give me an extra edge, slightly more focused sound. I use them mostly for pop/rock, either solos or background riffs. Very flexible. They are a bit sensitive to exact positioning and also ligature mount point.
